Determination of Leishmania species causing cutaneous leishmaniasis in Mashhad by PCR-RFLP method
Three species of L. tropica, L. major and L. infantum are known as main causal agents of leishmaniasis have been reported in Iran. Since cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is endemic in North East of Iran, in the present work, 50 Leishmania positive isolates from human cases in Mashhad (Center of Razavi province, North East of Iran), were genotyped by means of polymerase chain reaction-restriction f...
متن کاملSpecies Typing with PCR–RFLP from Cutaneous Leishmaniasis Patients in Iraq
A total of 20 skin lesion samples collected from patients with cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) attended AL-Karamah Teaching Hospital at Wasit province. Dermal scrapings were analysed by examination of Giemsa-stained smears, by Conventional PCR and RFLP-PCR methods. The incidence rate with CL was 80% by using Giemsa-stained and 100% for both PCR and RFLP-PCR. Twelve (60%) of isolates were typed as ...

متن کاملIdentification of Leishmania Species Using PCR Assay on Giemsa-Stained Slides Prepared From Cutaneous Leishmaniasis Patients
BACKGROUND Leishmaniasis is a group of diseases that are created by intracellular parasites of Leishmania. Cutaneous leishmaniasis is considered as one of the health problems in some provinces of Iran. METHODS In this study, a total of 178 Giemsa-stained slides from confirmed cases of cutaneous leishmaniasis were examined. The slides were prepared from the patients with cutaneous leishmaniasi...
متن کاملCutaneous leishmaniasis in French Guiana: revising epidemiology with PCR-RFLP
BACKGROUND The development of polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) technique for species identification among patients presenting leishmaniasis allowed to better determine the main circulating species in French Guiana. METHODS A descriptive study of the Leishmania species was identified, and their spatiotemporal distribution was conducted using patient...
